The Dearing House is a historic house on the west side of Arkansas Highway 122, between 7th and 8th Streets, in Newark, Arkansas. It is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with an L-shaped cross-gable configuration, and clapboard siding. It has several porches decorated with Victorian woodwork and turned posts. The first floor of this house was built about 1890 in the community of Akron, about 5 miles (8.0 km) from its present location. It was moved by its builder, Thomas Dearing, to Newark in 1901, and the second story was added in 1914.[2]
